About Stephen

For more than 23 years, Stephen Capps has built businesses, led teams, created systems, and helped people solve problems. But his greatest lessons didn't come from success—they came from walking through some of life's hardest seasons.

Within a 10-month period, Stephen lost his first wife, Lisa, to cancer and their largest customer. After remarrying, he and his wife, Sarah, faced years of financial pressure, worked tirelessly to rebuild their business, and struggled through 9 years of infertility.

Through faith, perseverance, and a commitment to doing the next right thing, in 2-1/2 years they paid off more than $230,000 in debt, built a debt-free seven-figure business, welcomed their twin daughters, and continue building a life centered on faith, family, and serving others.

Today, Stephen brings more than two decades of real-world leadership experience to every conversation. Having built businesses from the ground up, led teams through economic downturns, created scalable operating systems, and delivered thousands of successful projects, he understands both the challenges and the rewards of leading an organization.

Whether speaking to business leaders, mentoring entrepreneurs, or sharing lessons from his own journey, Stephen's message is simple: There are people that you have yet to meet who are counting on you to make it. Don’t you dare quit; don’t you dare give in.

Through speaking engagements, mentoring, and the Pull Up & Thrive podcast, Stephen continues encouraging others to build stronger businesses, stronger leaders, and lives marked by purpose, perseverance, and lasting impact.
